Abstract:
In this article the investigation of development of magnetorotational instability (MRI) in a laboratory setup using computational experiments is continued. Instability of the rotational flow of liquid sodium in the annular channel is studied. The simulation of such flow with more realistic values of the Reynolds number for the purpose of determining the dependence of the parameters of the MRI from the flow coefficient of viscosity is carried out.
Keywords:magneto-hydrodynamics, simulation of MHD-instabilities in plasma, software toolkit.
